POWERS OF 10

FROM MICRO TO
MACRO COSMOS
.
www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
This is a trip at high speed,
jumping distances by a factor of 10.
We’ll start with 100 (equivalent to 1 meter), and will increase
the size by a factor of 10, or 101 (10 meters), 102 (10x10 = 100
meters, 103 (10x10x10 = 1,000 meters), 104 (10x10x10x10 =
10,000 meters), so on, until we reach the limit of our
imagination in the direction of the macro cosmos.

Later we’ll return, a little faster, back to the point where we


started & continue our trip in the opposite direction reducing
distances of travel by factors of 10 into the micro cosmos.

We will observe the constancy of the laws of the universe


and think about how much the human race still needs to

learn...
BON VOYAGE!

the little Sun star
is very small

At this distance
we are
travelling in the
Via-Láctea
(Milky Way), our
galaxy.

We continue our
travel inside the

We begin
reaching the
periphery of
the Via-Láctea
(Milky Way)

At this
tremendous
distance we can
see the entire
Via-Láctea
(Milky Way) &
other galáxies
as well ...

10 - 10 Million light-years

From this distance, all the galaxies
look small with immense empty
spaces in between.

The same laws are ruling all bodies


of the Universe.

We could continue traveling


upwards with our imagination, but
now let’s return home quickly

Questions that come to


mind ...
Who are we?
Where are we going?
Where did we come
from?
www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com

Or... What do we
represent in the
Universe?

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com

In this trip
“upwards” we went
to the power of 23 of
10

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com

Now we are going to


dig inside of matter
in a reverse (inverse)
trip...

We arrive at our starting


point.
We could touch it with our
hands ...

10 Centímeters

Getting closer
at 10 cm ...We
can delineate
the leaves.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -2
1 Centímeter
At this distance
it is possible to
observe the
structure
of the leaf.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com

1 Millímeter

The cellular
structures
begin to show...
www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -4
100 microns

The cells
can be
delineated.

You can see


the union
between
them.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com

Starting our
trip inside
the cell ...

The nucleus
of the cell is
visible.

Nanometers
Again we changed
the measuring unit
to adapt to the
miniscule size.

You can see the


chromosomes.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com

10 Nanometers

In this micro
universe the
DNA chain is
visible.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -9
1 Nanometer

...the
chromosóme
blocks can be
observed.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -10
1 Angstrom
It appears like
clouds of
electrons... These
are carbon átoms
that formed our
world.

You should notice


the resemblance of
the micro cosmos
with the macro
cosmos ... www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -11
10 Picometers
In this
miniature
world we
could observe
the electrons
orbiting the
atoms.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -12
1 Picómeter

An immense empty space


between the nucleus and
the electron orbits...

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -13
100 Femtómeters

At this incredible and


minuscule size we
could observe the
nucleus of the atom.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -14
10 Femtómeters

Now we could
observe the nucleus
of the carbon atom

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -15
1 Femtómeter
Here we are in the field
of the scientific
imagination, face to
face with a proton.

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
10 -16
100 Attómeters
Examine the ‘quark’
partícules
There is nowhere
further to go...

We are at the limits of


current scientific
knowledge .

This is the limit of


matter...
www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
And now ...

Are you the center of the universe?


Are you the special creature of the Creatión?
What is behind the limits? Are there any limits?
Note that going downwards we could only go to the power
of minus 16ª of 10 to reach the (known?) limits of matter...
But upwards we went to the power of 23ª of 10 and
stopped... But we could have continued our trip subject
only to the limits to our imagination!!!!
... then?
... Who says that we are alone in the universe?

www.sharedivinelove.blogspot.com
Hope you
enjoyed the
trip.
The End!
